We were provided the opportunity to visit Wet N Wild Water Park a couple weekends ago and not only did we have a blast; I learned quite a bit about surviving a water park! Wet N Wild opened Barefootin’ Bay which is perfect for the entire family! We are a family of 5 with kids…

How To Raise Eco-Conscious Kids

The word ‘green’ is a real buzz-word these days, and for good reason; taking care of Mother Earth isn’t only important for the planet, but it’s important for all who live on it. By being eco-conscious, we can help to avoid exacerbating environmental issues that already exist, and preserve the earth for future generations. Plus,…

Our Favorite Places to Visit in Arizona

For Mother’s Day, Toyota lent me the 2017 Corolla 50th Anniversary Edition to attend a wonderful brunch with some other local bloggers and a local PR agency. We currently own a 2007 Corolla for our family of 5 and was pleasantly surprised at the difference between the two cars – especially when it comes to…

Liebster Award

I have been nominated for the Liebster Award from Finding Time in the Chaos. The Liebster Award is a fun way to get to know new bloggers and find out about their blog, their likes, and their interests. It kind of like the good old chain letter, in which each nominee, should they choose to…

6 Ideas to Help Kids Who Are Afraid of the Dark

6 Ideas to Help Kids Who Are Afraid of the Dark

I remember being afraid of the dark. Once. I stayed overnight at my dad and grandma’s house (which rarely ever happened) and there were bags in the corner that created some very scary shadows for a girl with an overactive mind.

Welcome to Holland: A Reminder for Special Needs Parenting

I have loved this poem since the first time I read it. I always knew, one day, whether by birth or by adoption, I would be traveling to Holland. Little did I know that it was truth. Sometimes (especially during the difficult times) we need this reminder… Because it’s okay that our vacation is now…

Lavender Essential Oil Uses

Lavender Essential Oil Uses

Our family started using essential oils in January before I gave birth to Addy. I knew my history with pregnancy and wanted to find more natural ways when it came to our lifestyle so essential oils made the most sense. Initially, hubby was skeptical but he is now on board (even more so than me!)…
